Simply add water to the bottles, combine a small amount of chemicals A & B (adults only) in a bowl or tub, coat paper, dry in lowlight, place objects on the paper and expose to the sun (or UV lamp). After exposure wash out in water and dry overnight.
After the image has fully dried it should show a lovely blue colour. Using a variety of paper, natural fabrics, wood will give you a wide range of images. (For longer use, keep the chemicals separate and in a dark place.)
